It was only a matter of time, but Motion Picture Association of America and the National Association of Theater Owners have finally instituted a “zero-tolerance” policy to ban all wearables, including Google Glass. Staff at theaters will apparently not call the police unless there is reason to believe the user is attempting to pirate a movie. Still, ushers are urged to kick out anyone wearing recording-capable wearables during showings.

That dolby 5.1 microphone on the glass makes it a solid pirating cam…..

Pretty stupid IMO.
Firstly, you cannot keep your head dead still for 2 hours, so what kind of crappy CAM would you be making using the Glass
Secondly, you can get far better quality from a dedicated camera, so this is more of a statement than a real deterrent.
